My Lands: Black Gem Hunting

First, let me say, I have been through every part of the Encyclopedia and the forums looking for a timing of each science before it is started. I realize that the less bottles you need to study a science, the less time it takes to study it. That is a no-brainer. I want to calculate the time so I can "budget" them in my daytime schedule BEFORE I start them.

Being that there are several sciences that are in the quest lineup, I believe it would be extremely helpful to know how to figure out, prior to starting the "study", how long it takes for one science to be completed. What is the formula for this?

For instance:

* It takes X hours for Y Science (Y=Bottles?) with One Lab at Level One
* If you have Two Labs at Level One, what would the formula be to figure out the time?
* If I have Ten Labs at Level Five, what would the formula be to figure out the time?

If the formula for how many Hours per Bottle times each level (upgraded level) of Alchemist Lab is known, then players can figure out exactly how long a "Science" is going to take so they can plan when they must return to the game for time efficiency, etc., thus using their game time more wisely and being able to complete quests faster.

Can it be posted in the Encyclopedia please? Obviously, there is a formula, or there wouldn't be a timing system at all... so, come on, please share it!

Lab gives you specyfied amount of sience points per hour. Every science needs specyfied amount of sience lab. If one lab gives you 5 point/h 2 labs will give you 10 points/h. It's easy to calculate.

If you place lab out of the gate u have 30% bonus for points

Why is this information not in the wiki? How much easier would it have been for me to have just looked there, under the labs/alchemy section, than to come here, asking questions and getting vague answers or snarky answers (like I have with previous questions), or waiting for weeks or a month or more --as I have noticed that some people have-- for someone to respond?

It is extremely vital information for players to know! Seriously. How often does the wiki/encyclopedia get updated? There are little tidbits of information, suggestions, et cetra, that would really help new people. I have seen several suggestions posted here in the forum, GOOD suggestions, and none of them have been implemented...

Rather than people finally coming to the forums only to find that they are too late to find a mentor because they have been in the game for longer than 30 days and then having to post things like HELP ME, SOMEONE PLEASE... or just leaving the game because the forum is dead, the wiki is vague and nobody really wants to respond or change anything in the wiki.

What exactly is the intention of any wiki? I believe it is generally to inform people with as much information as they can possibly give them... the more detailed, the better. People who are extremely interested for one reason or another-- in this case, it is the people that play the game-- or WANT to. So offer it to them... please?

I just get frustrated at times here. I am really getting into this game. I want to see it work for you guys. But you have to do something about the information, or I should say, lack of information, in the wiki. It is only through listening to what the new players are posting here that you are going to find out how to offer that.

I have been posting my experience and frustrations lately here on the forum. I am seeing that others are chiming in, finally, either with a differing opinion or whatever, but at least someone is responding! What an awesome thing! This made me very happy to know that there were actually people that were visiting here.

ok, enough of me ranting and wailing.

I am loving the game. I really want to progress in it. I plan on being active on the forum. And, you will probably hear more from me. blessed be

Why haven't you looked at the Buildings sections on the wiki and clicked on the alchemist lab?
Also read about villages.

All the stuff you "can't find" is right there.
